That's a great album. Sadly, the last with the classic lineup of Nugent, St. Holmes, Grange and Davies. Loved the version of Great White Buffalo especially

Never cared for Nugent and even less so after hanging out with him for a night. For me it was this album:

Agreed. Ted was a boring one trick pony guitar-wise in the key of A. A terrible example of our species too.
Loves me some Grand Funk! One of the first "cool" albums I got as a kiddo:

Mark Farner is 10 times the musician as Nugent…..maybe 100 times…

More of a riff than a solo but this made me get serious about electric guitar.

I shoulda used this. I’ve built 2 guitars for Joe and he is probably my single biggest influence on electric guitar playing as well as as a producer.
No one goes to the 4 better than Joe Walsh. We can be seen together in my avatar from when I built the second guitar for him.
He is a cool dude too. He recently famously said: When AI music can throw a TV out of a hotel room into the pool he will start paying attention to it.

I saw Mark Farner jam with Jack Bruce at the Bladesdale Arena in Honolulu. This was a total gas because I never expected to see Mark Farner at this show, and then there he was. What can I say,? it was a great concert. During the break I did have the opportunity to speak with Mr. Bruce; but alas I was not fortunate enough to meet Mr. Farner in person.
When I was a kid I thought Mark was the coolest guitar player, and childhood daydreamed of playing in a 3 piece power trio just like GFR. I thought the power trio was the cat's pajamas back then...

So many great Steely Dan solos by Eliot Randall, Larry Carlton, Jay Graydon and a bunch of others.
